# Bevy card game

Genre router. Domain work lives in the Bevy skills below.

## When to use

Load this for a local card zone, hand, and turn order.

## ECS shape

- **Components** hold the genre's per-entity flags as plain data. This file does not name new engine types.
- **Resources** hold the turn index, energy, and the card catalog via bevy-data-resources.
- **Systems** read those components on `Update` or the fixed timestep from bevy-master. Order them with `.chain()` when a later system must see the result.
- **Schedule:** gameplay mode changes go through bevy-state-machines. Do not invent a genre plugin.

## Idioms

| Need | Bevy shape |
| --- | --- |
| Cards and zones | Entities with `Card` and `InZone` |
| Turn and catalog | Resources |
| End turn, draw, play | Messages consumed on one `.chain()` |

## Routing

- [bevy-turn-system](https://github.com/thedivergentai/Game-Dev-Agentic-Skills/blob/main/skills/bevy-turn-system/SKILL.md) - Turns.
- [bevy-inventory-system](https://github.com/thedivergentai/Game-Dev-Agentic-Skills/blob/main/skills/bevy-inventory-system/SKILL.md) - Zones as containers of card ids.
- [bevy-ui-layout](https://github.com/thedivergentai/Game-Dev-Agentic-Skills/blob/main/skills/bevy-ui-layout/SKILL.md) - Hand layout.
- [bevy-data-resources](https://github.com/thedivergentai/Game-Dev-Agentic-Skills/blob/main/skills/bevy-data-resources/SKILL.md) - Card definitions.

## Scope

- A card is an entity. Its zone is a component. Turn index and the definition table are resources.
- Local play shuffles with `rand`. Online play stays on the networking skills.

## Examples

```toml
[package]
name = "cards"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"

[dependencies]
bevy = "0.20"
rand = "0.9"
```

Zones and the active seat are plain data. Ending a turn advances the seat, then draws one card into that seat's hand.

```rust
#[derive(Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
enum ZoneKind {
    Deck,
    Hand,
    Board,
}

#[derive(Component)]
struct Card {
    def: u32,
}
